Nets guard Ben Simmons has filed a grievance against his former team, the 76ers, seeking approximately $20 million the Sixers withheld from Simmons.
Philadelphia claimed Simmons failed to honor his contract, and Simmons cited mental health for his inability to join the team on a full-time basis.
Simmons requested a trade in the 2021 offseason, following Philadelphia’s loss to Atlanta in the Eastern Conference semifinals. He had signed five-year, $170 million extension with the Sixers in 2019, a deal that kicked in starting with the 2020-21 season. The Sixers did not find a deal for Simmons until just before the February trade deadline when they sent him to Brooklyn for James Harden.
Simmons is dealing with a herniated disc and has not played a game for the Nets since the trade. It is not clear if he will be available in the postseason.
